For this special episode, Planet Sci-fi joins forces with Hailing Frequencies for a 60th-anniversary look back at the series that started everything.Sixty years after Star Trek: The Original Series first aired, its DNA is still everywhere in the franchise. But does the programme that started it all actually still hold up?We revisit Where No Man Has Gone Before, Errand of Mercy, Balance of Terror, Assignment: Earth, The Trouble with Tribbles, The City on the Edge of Forever and more — looking at just how much Klingon and Romulan lore, character dynamics, storytelling ideas and even modern Strange New Worlds can be traced back to individual TOS episodes.There’s also the less comfortable side of looking back: how progressive was Star Trek really by the standards of the 1960s? What has aged surprisingly well, what very definitely hasn’t, and how much should historical context matter when judging it today?Along the way we talk Kirk, Spock and McCoy; the changing face of the Klingons; Tribbles; Gary Seven; Joan Collins; Lucille Ball and Desilu; the franchise’s transition from syndication and physical media to streaming — and why we're still having conversations about a television series that ran for only three seasons between 1966 and 1969.This is a special collaborative retrospective rather than the usual Planet Sci-fi audio episode or Hailing Frequencies Good, Bad & Batshit format.⚠️ SPOILER WARNING: This discussion contains full spoilers for numerous episodes of The Original Series and references to later Star Trek, including Strange New Worlds.If you've gone back to TOS recently, I'd love to know: what has aged far better than you expected — and what really hasn't?
